Interior Minister Kalin Stoyanov and British Immigration Minister Robert Jenrick signed a "Declaration on Enhanced Cooperation" in the fight against illegal migration at the Captain Andreyevo border crossing on Bulgaria's border with Turkey. "We have reached this agreement after about two months of intensive work on how to counter the transit of boats, their engines and accessories that do not meet European standards," Stoyanov said, referring to the inflatable boats used to transport migrants across the Channel from France to the UK. The seizure of these goods in transit through our country began a month and a half ago, BNR correspondent in Haskovo Dora Atanasova reported.
